The "intercultural fairy-tale festival” project tapped into children’s and adults’ inherent capacity for enthusiasm in order to foster an interest in other languages and cultures. Its aim was to enable people to discover and experience the similarities between, and unique features of, the languages of the three partner organisations co-operating on this project, all through the medium of play. Three institutions, the Peißnitzhaus e.V. (Halle, Germany), the Divadlo Minor (Prague, Czech Republic) and the Camphill Community Greenacres (Dublin, Ireland), each coming from a different educational and cultural background, worked together in partnership, united by their shared commitment to community and cultural projects.
